| Norton lovers can experience Norton completely with the new Norton wine glass. Norton limited edition wine glasses, crafted by the renowned Riedel Crystal Company, are now available.
Packed in a lovely black and white Riedel gift box, the glasses are $30 a pair and are available online at NortonSays.com http://www.nortonsays.com/purchase.aspx or through the Missouri Wine and Grape Board at 1-800-392-9463.These elegant Norton Riedel glasses are also available at Adam Puchta Winery in Hermann, St. James Winery in St. James, Les Bourgeois Winery and Vineyards in Rocheport, Augusta Winery in Augusta and Mount Pleasant Winery in Branson.
The Missouri Wine & Grape Board partnered with the Riedel Company in 2009 to determine the perfect glass shape for Norton, a full-bodied, dry red wine. Winemakers, wine retailers, and sommeliers met to taste Norton wines out of different glass shapes to find the bowl that would most complement Norton wine. This is only the third time in history that the Riedel Company has designed a wine glass for a regional wine variety. |
